Title: A method and system for determining a location using a plurality of selected initial location estimates
Inventor: SHI QICAI
IPC: H04W64/00
Filed: 2004-12-14
Abstract: A method and system is provided for determining a location for each of a plurality of units, which is selected from one of multiple sets of locations, which are each estimated based upon different initial location estimates. The selected set of locations includes the set which has the minimum error value, where the error value is based on the aggregate of the differences between the range determined from the estimated locations and the measured range. By using different sets of initial location estimates, there is a greater chance that at least one of the sets of initial location estimates will avoid any local minimums and produce a more accurate estimate of unit locations.

Title: Knee brace and methods of use and modification thereof
Inventor: BROWN ALICE M
IPC: A61F5/00
Filed: 2007-02-07
Abstract: A knee brace, method of use thereof, and modification to an existing knee brace facilitates inducing side loads to a knee joint to align upper and lower leg portions relative to one another, thereby allowing the knee joint to function properly over its full dynamic range of motion. The knee brace, whether as manufactured or modified, acts to apply a lateral shear force to the knee joint through application of opposing lateral forces, with one lateral force being above the knee joint in one direction and the other lateral force being below the knee joint in an opposite direction. The counteracting forces act to shift femoral condyles and tibial condyles of the knee joint back into proper lateral alignment without acting directly on the patella to counteract the effects of the patella femoral syndrome.

Patent EP-2543337-A4 (EP)
Title: Articulator
Inventor: LEE CHAE-BUNG
IPC: A61C11/00
Filed: 2010-04-16
Abstract: Disclosed is an articulator to check the alignment of teeth by attaching upper and lower jaw models. Upper and lower jaw parts have simple movement structures, the occlusal error of upper and lower jaw models is minimized, and the upper and lower jaw models are accurately mounted on an occlusal plane. A conventional articulator is manufactured by emulating the shape of upper and lower jaw movement and has a folding structure in which the position of the reference axis of the articulator corresponds to the condyle. The articulator has a structure except for the movement of a specific muscle, so that errors occur in upper and lower jaw movement. Even if the errors are reduced by using various auxiliaryunits, the post-process is essentially required. Occlusion is not accurately performed in the conventional articulator, but the structure of the articulator is excessively complicated and a worker has difficulty with the work. In a non-arcon type articulator, a reference axis is formed on a line extending from a central plane of the upper and lower jaw fixing members, such that the tangential line of the rotation movement is perpendicular to the occlusal plane. The non-arcon type articulator moves up or down more similarly to physiological movement when comparing with the conventional articulator to finely adjust the occlusal state by using an auxiliary unit, so that the error margin of the articulator is minimized, and the operating structure and the use of the upper and lower jaw fixing members are simplified.
Patent EP-0112862-A4 (EP)
Title: A method and an apparatus for performing routine analysis such as polarographic or spectrophotometric analysis.
Inventor: PUNGOR ERNO
IPC: G01N27/28
Filed: 1983-06-17
Abstract: Method and apparatus for performing routine analyses such as polarographic or spectrophotometric analysis on a large set of sample solutions filled into separate sample cups being arranged on or shaped in a sample cup holder (101) along a moving path, wherein the samples are in consecutive cycles sucked out of the sample cup (102) by a suction means (103) and transferred into a common vessel wherein the analysis will be performed. The invention consists in that a vessel (105) is used having a lower outlet (107) communicating with an analyzer cell (112) or the ambient space over a channel (116) which is only effective if the sample level in the vessel (105) is exceeding a certain threshold level, and an aspirating mouth (108) in the upper part of the vessel (105) communicating over a valve (109) with the ambient space. The suction means is a suction tube (103) a fixed end of which is coupled to the inlet (106) of the vessel (105) and a free end of the suction tube (103) can be turned by an appropriate means into two different working positions. A continuous suction effect is exerted on the fixed end of the suction tube during the whole series of cycles whereas the free end of the suction tube is in the first phase of each cycle turned into its first working position wherein the free end is dipping into the sample cup having its turn and being thus positioned opposite to the suction tube and in the second phase turned into its second working position wherein the said free end is protruding into the ambient space. The analysis is performed when the level of the sample in the vessel has already exceeded a prescribed threshold level and at the end of the analysis operation an overpressure is established in the vessel. Then the suction tube is - as the first phase of the following handling cycle - again turned into its first working position and this series of operations is cyclically repeated. A preferred embodiment of the invention differs from the above in that a vessel is used the upper and lower outlets of which are over separate suction tubes of a pump in communication with spaces of the analyzer chain following the vessel, e.g. the upper outlet witth the ambient space and the lower outlet - preferably over the ambient space - with a waste, and a continuous suction effect is exerted on both outlets of the vessel, during the whole series of cycles.

Title: Adaptive stepper
IPC: B23K11/25
Filed: 1991-05-29
Abstract: An adaptive stepper for adjusting welding heat boost to compensate for deterioration (flattening) of the electrode tips of a welder. Heat boost is provided to the welder as a function of expulsion rather than by a series of linear step profiles specified by a weld engineer. An operator sets up an adaptive schedule based upon an expected resistance difference between consecutive half-cycles considered to be "normal." If differences equal to or less than the normal level are detected during a group of welds, the heat boost will be incremented by 1% after a preprogrammed number of welds have been made. If differences greater than normal are detected, indicating expulsion, the boost will be decremented immediately by 1% between increases, if decrements are allowed at the time.
Patent EP-0537210-A4 (EP)
Inventor: BRIDGER JOHN STEPHEN
IPC: C02F3/00
Filed: 1991-07-03
Abstract: The invention provides a method and apparatus for providing periodical measurements of the real-time readily bio-degradable chemical oxygen demand (RBCOD) of a wastewater stream. The apparatus includes a bio-reactor (1) having an inlet (6) for accepting a continuous feed from the stream and an overflow outlet (7), whereby a sample volume can be maintained within the reactor. A feed rate is chosen to ensure an hydraulic retention time (HRT) in the reactor sufficient for substantially complete oxidation of the readily biodegradable compounds in the feed. Air (2) is periodically passed through the sample volume for set periods and the oxygen up-take (OUR) is determined by measuring the dissolved oxygen content via a probe (3) during the air-off periods. An RBCOD value is then calculated for each OUR value. The invention may be used to monitor the performance of wastewater treatment plants.

Abstract: Une nouvelle brosse à dents améliorée (1, 10, 20) est pourvue d'une paire de têtes de brossages séparées et jumelles (5, 6, 14, 15, 24, 25). Chaque tête est rattachée à une poignée (2, 11, 21) à un angle prédéterminé par rapport à la poignée. Les têtes sont disposées côte-à-côte et les angles respectifs des têtes s'inclinent en des directions opposées par rapport à la poignée. Selon un mode de réalisation, les têtes (5, 6) sont fixes par rapport à la poignée (2). Selon un autre mode, les têtes (14, 15) sont fixes par rapport à la poignée (11) mais celle-ci fléchit lorsqu'une pression suffisante est appliquée aux têtes au cours du brossage. Dans un troisième mode de réalisation, chaque tête (24, 25) pivote indépendamment de l'autre autour d'une tête de base (40) rattachée à la poignée (21). Une particularité unique de cette brosse à dents à têtes jumelles est qu'elle est spécifiquement conçue pour être utilisée selon une technique de brossage classique à laquelle la plupart des gens sont habitués, mais permet un nettoyage efficace des surfaces des dents et des gencives.
